Mount from fstab runs in foreground

[greerso]

used goofys#bucketname /mnt/mountpoint fuse allow_other,--file-mode=0777,--dir-mode=0777,--uid="33,--gid="33",--storage-class="REDUCED_REDUNDANCY" in /etc/fstab.

sudo mount /mnt/mountpoint mounted the volume with the following messages left open in foreground:

2015/11/07 21:34:10.777609 s3.INFO Switching from region 'us-west-2' to 'us-east-1'
2015/11/07 21:34:10.816434 main.INFO File system has been successfully mounted.

CTRL-C unmounted the volume.

That's odd, it worked fine for me. Could you double check that you are at the latest revision?

goofys -v
goofys version 0.0.2

Same after running:

go get github.com/kahing/goofys
go install github.com/kahing/goofys

[kahing]

What's the git revision?

Sorry, I don't know how to tell.

Tried "git pull" from within the src directory and it says "Already up-to-date."

[greerso]

The -f option shows in --help but makes no difference

[kahing]

I cannot reproduce this issue. Could you verify that go install is installing goofys to the same place mount is running it from?

[greerso]

which goofys shows /home/ubuntu/.gvm/pkgsets/go1.5.1/global/bin/goofys

I delete all trace of goofys from the go directories, then ran get and install again. Same problem. Should I send you my binary?

[kahing]

How does mount run goofys from /home/ubuntu/.gvm/pkgsets/go1.5.1/global/bin/goofys ?

[greerso]

"/home/ubuntu/.gvm/pkgsets/go1.5.1/global/bin/goofys bucketname /mnt/mountpoint" ran in background.

Copy or symlink goofys binary to /usr/bin or /bin so that I am able to use fstab and it runs in foreground.

[greerso]

This is my fstab entry:

goofys#bucketname /mnt/mountpoint fuse allow_other,--file-mode=0777,--dir-mode=0777,--uid="33,--gid="33",--storage-class="REDUCED_REDUNDANCY" 0 0

[kahing]

so if you run /usr/bin/goofys bucketname /mnt/mountpoint, it runs in foreground? Even if /usr/bin/goofys is identical to /home/ubuntu/.gvm/pkgsets/go1.5.1/global/bin/goofys? That doesn't make sense to me.

[greerso]

no run from the commandline it is working fine, only when I add the entry above to fstab and type "sudo mount /mnt/mountpoint" it runs in foreground.

[kahing]

Sounds like you are not running the same goofys then. Try

$ sudo strace -f mount /mnt/mountpoint >& xout
$ grep execve xout

and compare the goofys mount is executing with /home/ubuntu/.gvm/pkgsets/go1.5.1/global/bin/goofys

[greerso]

I see a problem here "/home/ubuntu/goofys" There is no goofys in the home directory. I'll check paths, and reboot.

[kahing]

[pid 6563] execve("/bin/goofys", ["goofys", "bucketname", "/mnt/mountpoint", "-o", "rw,allow_other,--file-mode=0777,"...], [/ 13 vars /]) = 0

What's /bin/goofys? mount shouldn't run both /bin/goofys and /home/ubuntu/goofys (which doesn't exist because execve is returning ENOENT)

[greerso]

/bin/goofys is where I copied /home/ubuntu/.gvm/pkgsets/go1.5.1/global/bin/goofys.

[kahing]

So what's launching /home/ubuntu/goofys? I pushed another commit for additional error check, could you rebuild and try again?

[greerso]

I've rebooted go get and go install again and no longer get any output from:

$ sudo strace -f mount /mnt/mountpoint >& xout
$ grep exec xout

[greerso]

Correction. I get:

execve("/bin/mount", ["mount", "/mnt/mountpoint"], [/* 15 vars */]) = 0

[greerso]

The new build returns:

I just built and ran on another ubuntu 14.04 server and got the same problem:

ubuntu@devrs:~$ sudo mount /mnt/cpisyndicationarchive.goofys
panic: unable to daemonize: fork/exec /home/ubuntu/goofys: no such file or directory

Maybe how I'm installing go? http://www.hostingadvice.com/how-to/install-golang-on-ubuntu/

[kahing]

Thanks for helping me debug this issue! I couldn't reproduce this problem because I do all my test in the source dir, where the original binary exists. The issue is due to sevlyar/go-daemon#8

[greerso]

Thanks for open sourcing this much needed alternative to the unreliable S3FS and RIOFS.

[cr-solutions]

Hello,

I have the same issue.
fstab and autofs not working.
Any solution?

debug shows:
mounted indirect on /mnt/goofys with timeout 300, freq 75 seconds
ghosting enabled
attempting to mount entry /mnt/goofys/panthermedia-test

but ls /mnt/goofys/panthermedia-test/ not returning

[corymickelson]

Getting the same thing, oddly it worked great for about a week, not sure what could have changed but im in the same boat as everyone else here now, everything i've tried results in this same error.

[kahing]

What's "the same thing"? This issue was fixed 3 years ago. Could you elaborate more since you are likely not having the exact same issue (even though the symptom maybe similar)

[corymickelson]

s3.INFO Switching from region 'us-east-1' to 'us-west-2'
May 30 10:45:18 cmickelson-workstation /home/cmickelson/Go/bin/goofys[9868]: main.FATAL Mounting file system: Mount: Statting mount point: stat /home/cmickelson/Remote/LP/: transport endpoint is not connected

the same error's as stated above.
I dont know where the us-east-1 region is coming from, aws config is set to us-west-2, the command is simply goofys . There is no rush here, I already have a work around for the time being, but thank you for the quick reply

[kahing]

if you run mount, do you see a stale mount?

[corymickelson]

@kahing Thank you, yes I just had to unmount with fusermount -u /path/to/mnt and rerun goofys. Thanks again for such a timely reponse.
